Clickbank: The Eighth Circle of Hell

Let's take a trip down to the Circle of Hell reserved for liars, otherwise known as ClickBank.

Does ClickBank promote scams? I'm sure they've had a real scam or two, but in general, no. The word "scam" is legally loaded. It's technical.

However, when people do searches like, say, "Is Data Entry Pro a scam?", they're not usually looking for the legal status of the program. What they really want to know is if the system works.

Well, technically, most ClickBank programs "work" - however, the fine print tends to "work " better than the big promises.

Big promise:

Make $1,000 a Day!

Fine print:

(Maybe)

The fine print technically exempts the programs from the term "scam", but not from being big fat liars.

So, let's take a look at the current top programs running at ClickBank:

"Data Entry Pro"

Their line (of BS): "Who Wants To Make a $1000+ Per Day Just Entering Simple Data From Home?"

This program has nothing to do with "data entry". You pay around $100 dollars in order to be informed about and directed to CPC programs like Adwords. CPC programs are not "data entry", and noone needs "Data Entry Pro" to learn how to use them.

Conclusion: Liars.

"Forex Enterprise"

Their line (this'll kill you): "Who Else Want's To Earn $1,000 Per Day, With Our Amazing Multiple Streams Of Income System?"

Hey, guess what: this program has nothing to do with "Forex". Nothing. You pay around $50 dollars to get information on affiliate marketing, "paid surveys", "click for cash", and whatever other information they can find for free on the internet.

Conclusion: Liars.

"Survey Income System"

Their Line (of BS): "Discover an unbelievably quick and easy way to give yourself a big fat pay raise, without leaving your home or risking one penny of your hard-earned money ..."

The money you're "risking" is the $35 dollars they charge for this worthless "system". Beside the fact that there are better, free sources for information on paid surveys out there, there is nothing "unbelievably quick" about earning or getting paid for completing them.

The site is fond of promises like: "I've had earnings of up to $150 an hour!"

Besides the "so what?" factor, even this sort of promise is deceptive; because if the actual hours spent completing surveys were averaged out, most people would be lucky for low single-digit dollar results, if not cents per hour.

Conclusion: Liars. As a bonus, it's even more worthless than the previous two; which is probably why it's at #3.

Bored now. If you simply must use Clickbank, preserve your dignity - find a product you believe in. I'm sure if you dig deep enough you'll find something, probably somewhere around the last (i.e. "least popular) page.
